Oh my.

The carpetbagging maternal ancestress of the Bostonian Drunkard; in case one doesn't know, she's an attorney.

Is there any way to implement the Jobs Plan without Congress?

I am embarrassed at my ignorance of how the federal budget works. I do know that in many states and municipalities the chief executive can move money around. Somehow I feel it's not enough for Obama to just lobby Congress to pass the Jobs Plan...can he implement at least some of it by executive order?

Raven's pretty ignorant in a lot of things regarding government.

Congress has to authorize expenditures.

For 8 years they bitched, they whined, they moaned, that Bush was a dictator. Now that their guy is President, they actually want him to become a dictator.  :mental:

Harry Reid employed the "nuclear option" that you DUmmies are applauding, and prevented those evil rethuglicans from bringing up Obama's Tax bill for a vote. Now STFU and go make your son a sandwich.

Wallduded DUmmy Raven is thinking about how the ignorant fundies who run Rindge, NH moved money away from her,
and then moved a much smaller amount to the assistant who replaced her.

You know this?   There is not one state or municipality where this is true, so I am going to need an example.

Actually, don't be too hard on the Bostonian Drunkard's mum, sir.

Per her own son's recollections a couple of years ago, she went to night law school, not regular law school.

Just like Dan and Marilyn Quayle did.

Of course, nothing wrong with that.

Yeah, do like my daddy did when I didn't want to work...tell your worthless son to go get a real job or move out. Tell him him his worthless ass can't live in the basement if he doesn't have a real job.

Who needs congress.

Its projection, because deep down inside their minds, beyond all the cognitive dissonance and doublespeak training, they know they are assholes, and their ideology is assholistic. When they want to slander someone else they think about what it is they would do in the same situation, and then project that onto their target.

.....assholistic.....

I must say, sir, that is one of the most wonderful words I've seen invented here.

Awesome.

That should become part of the English lexicon!

10. Actually, it would be easier to just simply ban the republican Party
   
More specifically, to criminalize the funding by declaring the GOP as an illegal organization under the RICO statutes. Once financing is banned, it would be illegal for republican activity to occur. That would actually be the ONLY logical step we can take to prevent this crap from happening.

Masshole refugee.  Nuff said.

Oh, and Raven?  You claim to be a member of the bar yet you're not aware of Article I, Section 8 of the United States Constitution?

You're about as much of a legal scholar as our esteemed Pretender in Chief.  Hopefully come 1/20/13 you're BOTH be unemployed.

The Bostonian Drunkard's mother already is unemployed, sir.

She's retired, started collecting social security retirement checks a couple of months ago.

Of course, if she were "means-tested".....

Yes, I know.  I meant that Obama can join her in the unemployment line.

Then again, I also meant to type "YOU'LL", not "YOU'RE".  Damn oatmeal stout beer.

Hitler did the same thing. The similarities of the modern democrat party and the National Socialist Workers Party are frightening and striking.

Must have blown every member of the Board of Law Examiners twice to avoid having to really take that exam.  Or used the rumored Kennedy method, have a stand-in show up to take it for the well-connected moron, with the proctors on the take or doing a favor for 'The old school tie.'
